Three families....appetizers and drinks at the first stop....something more main course at the second... and dessert and coffee at ours to finish off. We get to see everyone's pretty tree's, but it seems so much easier to just pull together one course of a meal, rather than the whole thing. We do a Tree Tour/Progressive dinner, which is so fun!

Yes, I have been involved with progressive dinners when I was single. They were always so much fun!! This would be a great idea to bring back into practice. Your daughter is so talented!

Might have to plan some again-especially this time of year it would be fun to see everyone's house prettied up for Christmas!

We participate in one each Christmas season with 5 other neighbors - it's a wonderful tradition that was started long before we moved into our neighborhood. This was the 10th year that we participated. Thanks for sharing about yours! Aren’t progressive dinners fun?!

She did a superb job. As for traditions, before we moved to Nebraska our Sunday School class (around 30 couples) would do a 'Who's Coming to Dinner' and a white elephant gift exchange. Some couples would host and the others would meet at the church & draw the name for whose home they would be going to for dinner. No one new who would be going where. It was so much fun. Those who did not host brought a dessert and we would all meet at a home at a designated time for dessert and the exchange. So many wonderful memories, I loved to host for this event. This is one of the things I miss most since moving. Abby’s cake is gorgeous! She did a superb job.
